That is a kind of up tight thought to enter a game with and one that has killed NU in the late minutes of games where they have had leads. Sorry Stpaul, I mostly concur with you threads.

I wasn't directing this to the team, but to the Basketball Gods.

I don’t know the UCLA coach at all, never watched him interview before but he seemed super arrogant and dismissive of NU, a team that thanks to our cold shooting streak would’ve otherwise taken down his 2 seed. I definitely think his players respect NU seeing how banged up they were in that rock fight.

i didn't think he was dismissive in his comments after the game.

Well, he got out coached and barely escaped with a win at the end. I dunno anything about him, either tho.

Maybe just his style of speaking but he did say stuff like “they don’t have any backups so we should be fine if we shut down their starting guards” and “that’s a nice job by Collins, to do that an Northwestern is basically impossible” which seems a little sideways of a compliment.

Not coachspeak but a lot of truth. For sure no guard depth

Cronin has never been a polished speaker. They miss a lot in Cincy
